Even if that was the case, everything they had still belonged to Gerald now.
“You better sign the contract after I take the stone, you understand?” said Gerald while throwing Zelda to the ground in front of all the other Minshall.
After leaving, the old master immediately cried as he shouted, “That's... That whore…! How dare he take everything from us..!”.
He really did not know how he was still alive after yesterday's incident. To think that they used to have such a happy and beautiful life... Now, however, everything is gone, and Gerald's constant ridicule only worsens it.
If only his naive grandson had not provoked the man, then everything would have been fine. Who would have thought that this man would be so unreasonable? He was a much bigger thief than all the Minshalls combined! He just stole everything he saw!
For many years now, the Minshall family had been a famous and almost noble-like family in Halimark City. Never had they felt this low before the entire time they were here!
“A waterproof stone is our family's last treasure, grandfather! Even our ancestors said even though we could live without money and power, we would definitely be destroyed forever once we lost that stone!”
"Indeed! All will be lost if he gets the stone!”
All the younger generations of the Minshall family were currently shouting their thoughts as they gathered around Zelda.
Of course, what they all said was undoubtedly true. As long as they still had the water-repellent stone, then their families would definitely still have a chance to prosper again, even if Gerald had taken the other one. Zelda might as well not have to die that fast if that was the case. However, once again, Gerald changes their fate.
Thinking about it, Zelda's expression suddenly turned fierce as she smiled before saying, “...What are you all worried about? Do you think it would be that easy for him to obtain a water-repellent stone? To be honest, I would be very happy if he actually made it into the ancestral mine! Now it will truly be a blessing from our ancestors!”
"…What? Why do you say that, grandfather? ” ask Zoey.
“Truf card?” asked the other Minshalls as their faces beamed.
"I'm talking about a thousand-year-old poison, of course!" zelda replied while gritting her teeth hard.
Upon hearing that, all of Minshall immediately began to exchange glances in shock.
A thousand years of poison was one of the most ancient treasures of the Minshall family. While many of the family's grandchildren just thought that it was a myth, hearing their grandfather mention it made them realize that the poison was real.
If the rumors were true, it was said that even a single inhalation of poison was enough to make one's internal organs rot, no matter how powerful the person was.
“While it is true that none of us here are almost a worthy opponent for him, I want to see how well he will be able to fight against a thousand year old poison! Ha ha ha!" declared Zelda in a vicious manner.
Standing up, he then shouted, “Issac! Zoey!”
"Gift!" yell at them both at the same time.
“Remember what Master Ghost had advised us back then? He has told us that a family without morality like ours will always end badly. He also told us back then that we would face a big problem this year that would cost us our entire family! Now that all this has happened, I want you two to go see him and ask him to read our family fortune again! More specifically, ask Master Ghost if our family will manage to overcome this problem, and if we want, ask when we will be able to regain our glory as well!” zelda's orders.
Afterwards, the old master asked all the other Minshall family leaders to gather in the meeting room located in their backyard. They will hold an emergency meeting …
